Welcome
Firstly, thank you for purchasing your Trilogy Audio Systems SPD H1 Electrostatic Headphone Amplier,
we value your custom.
We strive to design and build world class products that stand the test of time. By reading this manual you

with a lifetime of outstanding performance.
The H1 is the rst product from our Special Products Division (SPD). Launched in 2017, SPD is a
subsidiary of Trilogy Audio Systems dedicated to the design and manufacture of high end components
that would normally fall outside or the usual Trilogy range.
All SPD components will be hand crafted by myself. Each product will be hand assembled, tested and
auditioned prior to dispatch. Such production processes mean that SPD components will be limited in
terms of numbers produced.
Every SPD design will use the highest quality materials and nishes to ensure it lasts a lifetime.
Such dedication ensures each model manufactured is personal to its owner. Ensuring pride of ownership.

Introduction
We prefer that your Trilogy dealer delivers, installs, sets up and explains your H1’s operation to you. However, we still
recommend that you read through this manual thoroughly and keep it to hand for reference.
Should any part of this manual or the operation of the H1 not be clear to you, please do not hesitate to contact your Trilogy
dealer. If this is not convenient, please contact ourselves directly.
About this manual
From this point on, any information presented on the left hand pages are pictorial representations of the H1. The left hand
pages can be considered as additional information to accompany the written descriptions on the opposite pages.

Unpacking
Be careful when unpacking your Trilogy H1. Please ensure that you store all the packaging safely for future use. It is the ideal
method of protecting your investment from damage during transport.
The carton contains:
Trilogy SPD H1 Electrostatic Headphone Amplier
IsoLink Wave power cord
Owners manual
RC-S remote control and two AAA batteries.
Environment
Do not site either unit near liquids, or place liquid-lled containers near the unit. If any liquid does come into contact with
either unit there is serious potential for an electric shock or re hazard. Immediately pull out the mains plug from the wall
socket. Contact your dealer to arrange an inspection before further use.
The H1 generates heat and is cooled by convection. In operation it will become quite warm to the touch, this is normal. It
needs good circulation of room temperature air under and around it. Do not place either unit near sources of heat such as
radiators or in direct sunlight. Do not enclose in a cupboard. Do not place directly on carpet.
A at, smooth surface is required. As with all high resolution audio equipment, your H1 is sensitive to vibration, strong
magnetic elds and radio interference. A dedicated high performance equipment platform sited away from other appliances
is the optimum location.

Connections
It is good practice to complete all interconnections before switching the power on to avoid any damage to your headphones.
The rear panel features 4 remotely selectable line level stereo inputs. There are two RCA single ended (1&3) and two XLR
balanced (2&4) inputs. Typical line level sources such as CD players, phono preampliers, tuners or preamplier outputs can
be connected directly to the inputs.
The H1’s output is via two “Stax type” sockets and is suitable for Stax Earspeakers and some other brands of electrostatic
headphones only. They are connected in parallel and are not independently controlled.
WARNING! Do not attempt to plug any other type of headphone into the H1, damage or injury may result.
WARNING! Plug the Earspeakers or electrostatic headphones into the H1 before switching on.
When using extension leads make sure these are plugged in before switching on.
If you are in doubt about the suitability of your Stax Earspeakers or other electrostatic headphones, seek advice from your
Trilogy dealer.
Remote Control
Note that the H1 is remote control only. Control of the H1 is not possible without a remote control.
Operation is via the supplied RC-S remote control. System code 19 Phillips RC-5 infra red codes are used if programming a
universal handset. For operation using the Trilogy PRC system remote control, consult the PRC manual.

Power Supply
The AC input voltage has been set for the country it was purchased in. Check that the label on the rear panel matches your
AC supply voltage before plugging into the IEC inlet. The AC inlet cable provided should be used. If another cable is used,
please ensure that you check it is wired correctly.
The wires in the AC input cable supplied are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Green and yellow: Earth
Blue: Neutral
Brown: Live
WARNING! The unit must be earthed. Do not disconnect the AC earth at any time. Danger of electric shock! If in doubt
about any aspect of power supply, consult your Trilogy dealer or a qualied electrician.
A direct connection to a mains outlet is best for your H1, avoid adapters. To realise your H1’s full potential we recommend
high quality mains conditioning. See www.isol-8.co.uk for more on power supply and system solutions from our acclaimed
sister company.
The fuse holder adjacent to the IEC inlet carries a ceramic 20mm fuse. If the unit stops working, check and replace this
fuse with one of the same type and value if necessary: 800mA T for 230V and 240V versions or 1.5A T for 100V and 120V
versions. If the fuse repeatedly fails, do not use the unit and contact your Trilogy dealer for service.
WARNING! Failure to replace the fuse with the same type and rating will invalidate the warranty and may result in an electric
shock and/or re hazard.
It can be left connected at all times. However, if the H1 is not being used for extended periods of time, switch off or unplug
at the mains outlet.
